Marsh-Marigold

When gathered before they expand, the flowers of the marsh-marigold, if preserved in vinegar, with the addition of salt, may be used as a substitute for capers. This plant is easily propagated by parting the roots in autumn, or by sowing the seeds about the latter end of summer; it requires a humid soil, and a some-what shady situation.
